I am hoping that someone knows the whereabouts of an affluent Basque family wholived outside the small town of Pueblo Nuevo, Guanajuato, MEXICO during1950-1970, which is when the French men, C. Josú (José) Barreneche Echeverri andhis brother C. Emilio Barreneche Echeverri leased and operated the HaciendaHuatzimitiro.

The persons of interest are C. Josú (José) Barreneche Echeverri and his brotherC. Emilio Barreneche Echeverri, said to be from the French Basque Country whileJosé's wife Maria Del Carmen Aldave from the Spain Basque Country.And their four known daughters Marta Barreneche, Mirentxu "Mirenchu" Barreneche,MariCarmen Barreneche and Teresa "Teresita" Barreneche.

In 1957 the married José Barreneche Echeverri and his Nanny employee of theHacienda, Francisca "Pachita" Pimentel de Rangel (b.1922) produced a child (thesame year his legitimate wife gave birth to Teresa Barreneche).My mother was a baby who was swept under the rug by mr José Barreneche Echeverriand his accomplices who falsified her birth certificate using his resources, anddisappeared from Huatzimitiro practically overnight.Francisco Ramos (b.1927) is shown as the father and Bicente Jasso (b.1898) &Elpidio Ramos (b.1917) as the witnesses to the birth.

Please contact me with any information that you may have about the story orpictures shared. Thank you and God Bless.

About me:

Born in Los Angeles, California, I had the good fortune of being raised inPueblo Nuevo, Guanajuato, Mexico and learning my parents heritage from 1-8 yearsold. I was raised by my loving parents, Martha and Ezequiel, in a small houseon the Town's main street Francisco I Madero, but spent most of my days just twoblocks away at my paternal Grandparents home on the same street. As life wouldhave it, my youngest sibling, Luis Angel, was born with a cataract and wereturned to Los Angeles, California in hopes the capable efforts of Children'sHospital would help safe his eye. My humble parents worked very hard so theirchildren would never go hungry or homeless. I began working odd jobs atthirteen to help my father with the living expenses as it was expected of me,since my mother found it difficult to cope with the death of her Mother in 1985and soon after her only Sister's death. My mother had a nervous breakdown when Iwas thirteen and everything changed for us all. We tried to understand her, butmy own shame and pain from being molested by a middle school teacher sent meinto a dark loneliness. Before graduating High School I joined the US Navy tostudy Journalism and escape the bulling from my younger brother at home, but I was honorably discharged for being honest about my sexual preference just beforeI left for 'Bootcamp'. In 1998 I moved to the Hollywood Hills and lived the socalled Dream. Regular brunch at The Four Seasons, the BMW, the pretentiousparties, all the material nonesense. I drank all the booze I could to numb thepain UNTIL I was enlightened in 2008 and attended my first AA meeting and havebeen sober since. I have forgiven all who have hurt or disappointed me,Including my maternal Grandfather and his wife who walked away from an innocentchild, my sweet and loving mother.
